Pros
Excellent place to build a strong foundation in SQL, UNIX, and production support. Exposure to real-time incident management and backend operations. Supportive team environment that encourages learning and ownership. Opportunity to work on enterprise-level systems and tools. Gained experience in automation, debugging, and internal dashboard development. Flexible work culture with a focus on problem-solving and continuous improvement.
Cons
Limited exposure to new-age development technologies in certain roles. Learning curve can be slow if not self-initiated. Project work may involve more support and maintenance than core development. Internal mobility and upskilling opportunities could be more structured. Tech stack depends heavily on project allocation, which may not align with career goals.
